Why did my iphone suddenly die?

I bought this iphone two weeks ago and now it suddenly died. It will turn on by pressing the power button and when it is connect to the charger. No beeping sound is signed that it is connected. It seems to be completely dead. Is there anyway of reviving this? Stressed.

Without full diagnostic testing no one can say why it behaved that way.  Could have been the battery overheated, misbehaving software, a number of reasons.
Worth trying if it happens is to plug the iPhone into the wall charger, then do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, release the buttons and let it proceed through its startup routine.

  • Why did my iPhone suddenly stop connecting to my home wi-fi network?

    I have had the phone for about a week.  It connected to my home wi-fi network perfectly.  Yesterday, I suddenly lost connection and when I went to rejoin the network, it took me several tries and various methods recommended by other forums before it would finally connect.  Today the same thing happened, after working perfectly fine for the first part of the day.  Except now, I can't get it to rejoin at all.  Just wondering if anyone has ideas as to what the problem might be, before I contact technical support. 

    By the way, I didn't have any software updates, nor did I change any settings prior to this happening.

    No, I don't think anyone here would know.
    Mine has done that once or twice.

  • Why would my iphone suddenly lose charge rapidly (6-7%/hr) with no use

    Why would my iphone suddenly lose charge rapidly (6-7%/hr) with no use?

    I had the same problem with my iPhone 5 AFTER I had upgraded to IOS.
    Did a good deal of searching on this site and others and found that the main advice being given was to turn off all apps that are running in the background (From the home screen double press the home button and a visual list of all apps running in the background will appear. To turn them off simply swipe your finger upwards on each).
    Found that this definitely solved my problem and now make sure I do this every time I use the phone.
    Hope this helps

  • HT201210 Why did my iPhone go in to recovery mode because it failed to update?

    Why did my iPhone go in to recovery mode because it failed to update?

    Probably because the update did not complete and/or the files got/were corrupted.

  • Why did my iphone add a  1 to all my contacts?

    Why did my iphone add a +1 to all my contacts after shutting it off? Now my contacts have disappeared because it does not recognize any of the numbers due to the +1.

    Did you change your region settings?
    If so, change it back to the country you're in.
    The reverse has happened to me from Austria to America, now my phone has old messages from austrian numbers but it doesn't show their names anymore because the implied +43 country code is gone.

  • Why did my iPhone (not PCs) suddenly require a change in POP/SMTP server spec's for one (only one) of my email accounts?

    Hello! Why has my (iPhone only) POP and SMTP settings suddenly changed for one (oddly only one) of my email sub-accounts? -It changed from "incoming.verizon.net" and "outgoing.verizon.net" to pop.verizon.net and smtp.verizon.net, respectively, ALL BY ITSELF!?
    For example, I have had two verizon email accounts on my iPhone for some time, each originally set up with the default "incoming.verizon.net" and "outgoing.verizon.net" for receive/sending email.  Suddenly, without my changing anything in my settings, my "[account-1]" account would not work via iPhone (yet still worked via desktop PC)- it was not until I completely deleted the "[account-1]" account from my iPhone and recreated it that it would work, HOWEVER, iPhone AUTO-creation process for this POP account settings now picked up "pop.verizon.net" and smtp.verizon.net" instead of the previous standard "incoming.verizon.net" and "outgoing.verizon.net" settings.  (Yet "incoming.verizon.net" and "outgoing.verizon.net" is still necessary for all other verizon accounts, as well as for my "[account-1]" on desktop PCs)  Has someone, for example, affected (illegally...?) a redirection of my "[account-1]" mail through other servers...?  NOTE: ALL my acocunts have been using the incoming 995 and outgoing 465 ports for some time without problems until this issue started a couple days ago.

  • Why did my iPhone photos get deleted and can I recover them?

    An entire album's worth of photos were deleted and I want to know why and if I can recover them.
    I have an iPhone 4S on iOS 6, iTunes 10, PC user.  Under "photo albums" I created a new album called "job photos" which I've been moving photos to as needed.  Today I took a bunch of picutures at work with my iPhone, and before I got to my computer I moved them over from the "camera roll" to the "job photos" album, then deleted the originals in "camera roll".  Everything worked fine until I synced the phone to iTunes. 
    Up until today I've been syncing a folder on my PC with a bunch of photos to my iPhone.  In order to save space on the phone I unchecked the "sync" box to stop syncing those photos.  After the phone was done syncing not only was my PC album gone but all the photos in my "job photos" album were gone too.  ***?
    Why did this happen and is there a way to recover the photos I just lost?  My iPhone wasn't backed up so I wouldn't be able to do a backup recovery.  Please help.

    You lost the photos because the actual data is in Camera Roll.  When you see pix in albums, it is by virtue of pointers to the actual storage in Camera Roll.  Otherwise, you would be using up storage by creating albums.  SO, do not delete from Camera Roll until you have copied to your PC.

  • Why has my iPhone suddenly stopped working?

    I was in the middle of reading a text this morning when my iPhone suddenly turned off. Now, the screen is black and my computer won't even recognize it when it's plugged in. The battery should not be dead because it was charged over night and it does not turn on even after being plugged in for awhile. I didn't drop it or spill anything on it before it broke, the screen just suddenly went black. Has this happened to anyone else. Any suggestions on what to do?? Also, I haven't updated my iPhone  to iOS 5 yet if that's relevant.

    Contact 3 asap you may have been frozen because of inadvertant excessive
    data use or more.
    All you can eat does NOT apply overseas
    AND if you did not enable roaming they will certainly believe your iPhone has been stolen
    and taken out of the country

    I have the same problem which started ever since I uploaded and installed the new OS4.1 on my iphone. It hangs and I've had to reset the entire phone each time it does this. My fear is that the iphone will hang when I'm in an emergency or when I need it the most and I won't have my MacBook around to reset it. Is there any new fix to this?

  • HT201210 My iPhone suddenly died. Screen is blank. How can I reboot?

    My phone suddenly died. Dark screen. Fully charged. Computer doesn't see it when I plug in to sync with iTunes. Just dead. But when someone calls, although the phone doesn't ring, it's like it is still there, as the incoming call doesn't go directly to voicemail as it would if the phone were turned off.

    hold down home and power button for 10sec should reboot it
    otherwise you need to wait for it to run out of batt in which case it's likely not going to be ok after the reboot as something more sinister would be afault

  • Why did my iphone 5 suddenly deactivated?

    While Im using my iphone 5, browsing some wallpaper apps, it suddenly deactivated. now i cant activate it, i dont know why.. please tell me what to do if you had the same experience.. Thanks

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Or make an appointment at an Apple Store to have the phone looked at.
